Ways to Probe Existing User Profiles

the PX3.

With SNMP v3 activated, you get the "user unknown" error when the
user name used to authenticate does not exist.

Any user with the permission to view event rules can query all local
existing users via JSON RPC.

Any user with the permission to view the event log may get
information about existing users from the log entries.

Any authenticated users can query currently-existing connection
sessions, including Webcam-Live-Preview sessions, which show a
list of associated user names.

Role of a DNS Server
As Internet communications are carried out on the basis of IP addresses,
appropriate DNS server settings are required for mapping domain
names (host names) to corresponding IP addresses, or the PX3 may fail
to connect to the given host.
Therefore, DNS server settings are important for external authentication.
With appropriate DNS settings, the PX3 can resolve the external
authentication server's name to an IP address for establishing a
connection. If the
SSL/TLS encryption is enabled, the DNS server
settings become critical since only fully qualified domain name can be
used for specifying the LDAP server.
For information on external authentication, see Setting Up External
Authentication (on page 295).
